Lastly, Bluetooth technology is huge and Philips made sure to make this device compatible for easy data accessability. This Respironics BiPAP ST device will surely provide stellar therapy without hassle, discomfort or complication.
IPAP and EPAP Support
Now, let's make one thing clear, this device is not for everybody. Unlike the other machines on the market, this DreamStation was designed to deliver inhalation and exhalation support for those who have a bit more complex sleep apnea. This added ability enables a smoother breathing process considered to be far more comfortable since the user is no longer competing against constant pressure but simply breathing at the right moment. To ensure breathing is smooth throughout the night, exhalation support is especially critical for those with higher pressure prescription.
DreamMapper
The DreamStation comes packed with a built-in bluetooth connection giving your device direct communication with your smartphone(iOS or Android) via the Philips Respiroronics DreamMapper mobile app. If you have a laptop/personal computer with bluetooth capability then the web-based program will work just as well. With the app being free and allowing you to personalize the data tracking on your account, this is considered a win-win situation.
Auto-Trak Sensitivity
Digital Auto-Trak Sensitivity is an advanced algorithm which is able to carefully monitor your breathing pattern and take account of leaks which occur during therapy. When Auto-Trak detects a leak it will respond accordingly so that your therapy won't be derailed or disrupted.
Spontaneous/Timed Triggers
Respironics spontaneous and spontaneous timed triggers allows you to better customize your therapy experience by responding to manual indication rather than automatic variables while providing persistent ventilation support no matter the given circumstance. These triggers will either provide automatic adjustments or manual adjustments depending on your preference: automatic adjustments will let your Philips DreamStation device do the work, and the manual option will give you more deliberate control.
EPAP Technology
EPAP technology assists DreamStation in analyzing airways to determine whether they are clear or obstructed. It accomplishes this by employing the Auto-Titrating Algorithm which enables the BiPAP to operate like an Auto CPAP or Auto BiPAP device. EPAP enables this Philips Respironics BiPAP device to recognize and adapt to any condition change such as a drop in weight or medication.
Humidification System with Heated Tubing (Optional)
Receiving adequate humidification should be among the chief concerns of sleep apnea patients since humidification can eliminate the negative side effects of therapy. The humidifier attached to the Philips DreamStation 1030 will monitor the temperature and humidity of your surrounding environment and then maintain optimal humidity levels during sleep. With the humidification system for the 1030 you wont have to worry about nasal congestion, dryness, sore throat or other undesirable effects. The optional heated tube reduces rainout and controls the air temperature for a more personalized humidification process.
